3 Dear Readers Any tourist picking up this publication will share in an out-of-the-ordinary perience in Budapest ex- The city, which has a rich historical background and unique cultural heritage, now reveals a completely new face. Last year, we tempted residents of Europe s metropolises to take a summer adventure in Budapest. Citizens of Budapest were able to suggest the best places and give great insider tips for getting the most out of the arts and design, parties and entertainment, rest and relaxation, love and romanticism, festivals and events. Budapest venue of not one but two UNESCO World Heritage sites is the only capital in the world boasting nearly 100 thermal wells and 12 spas, where 19 million litres of thermal water breaks to the surface each and every day. But do you know, for instance, what an experience it is to enjoy a night time bathing party in the Rudas or a romantic engagement on Margaret Island? The whole city is packed with fortifications and buildings from Roman times, Turkish baths still in use today, the heritages of the Gothic and Baroque eras, and the incredibly rich architecture of the Art Nouveau. There again, have you ever gazed out across the entire city from the vantage point of the dome of the Basilica? Did you know that the superb natural environment that surrounds Budapest, the Buda Hills, can be best and most conveniently explored using a most varied range of unusual transport: cog-wheel railway, chair-lift and children s railway? And I haven t even mentioned the astonishing world of the caves and cave systems running beneath Budapest No doubt the new experience islands uncovered by locals will charm you, too. I have no hesitation in recommending this publication which, with its entertaining style and practical structuring, is the perfect companion on your exploration of the city.
